Keep me busy!!!

"Rolling stone gathers no moss"
And a busy man is never sad!

"Lazy man's mind is devil's workshop"
And a busy man's mind is so moving, that the devil himself finds it hard to find room even for keeping his tools... and you say workshop :p

So don't forget to keep me busy!

"Be busy, stay busy, live busy, die busy!!"

mothers are super beings....

This post is dedicated to all mothers around the world...

Mothers- they are so special... I use to feel... they love, they care, they sacrifice their interests, their selfishness... they will suffer anything... any pain... all for one and one thing in this world - her kid.

Your life may be full of miseries... you may fail... you may be broken up into pieces... the whole world may turn their backs on you... but one person on this earth will never give up on you... your mother!

You may hurt them in the course of life knowingly or unknowingly... mentally or physically... She may shout at you... she may fight back with you.... but deep inside she has it.. the never ending ocean of love for one and only one thing .... you, her kid.

You may not talk to her, you may not share any of your needs or sorrows with her... but she will surprise you by doing what ever you need, all by herself... with out waiting for you to ask... she will help you forgive the pains in life... all without you telling her.... Mothers - they are super beings... let it be of human or of any other living thing...

Just like that my mother also keep on surprising me... by giving answers for the issues in my life, those i have never shared with anyone... How she does it??? I don't know... at times i feel that she is the person who knows me the most... It feels like she knows exactly what I am going through where ever I am... It makes me believe the bond between the mother and her child prevails even after umbilical cord is cut... after all I came from her... I was part of her... and may be still I am part of her... wot ever it is.... I am still surprised how they do it...  !!!!!!!

Motherhood is what makes a woman's life Complete!!!!

About another close contact with an IITian

Here at my college, we have been enjoying the lectures by a well known proffessor from IIT Madras for the last two days. Its none other than Prof. Kalyana Krishnan. The seminar was organized by the computer science department for the first year Mtech students and 2nd year Btech students. The topic was Computer organization.

Though the topic was known to most of the Mtech students, it seemed like new information. The IITians usually have a different approch towards presenting anything. They start from the basics and explain different sub topics as the move up by linking them the most practical way. the linking makes it more interesting all the time. coz thats how all our brain works. They dont jump or get stuck! that's what makes the talks by IITian so special.

I was not here to talk about what he had tought us about computers. But I'm here to talk about one of his work at IITM. Its a text editor. just a text editor? No its a multilingual text editor.

The Editor will allow you to use english key board to type any Indian language and forign languages like Arabic etc and even Brailie.Once the content is typed in you can change the language and the text will be transcripted to that language. It has won the honor from the former President of India, Dr. APJ Abdul kalam. You can download the software from here

This is an open source project now called imli

I think it will be a good tool to learn braili and sanskrit. It could be a coincidence tha that I have watched the movie called "Book of Eli". And when the professor showed the editor during the session the first thing that went in to my head was this... how the movie would have ended if the villian in the movie had this editor with him :)

Anyways the the lectures were wonderful.

Do you love your Mom???

Oh yea... I know the answers... I can hear you saying- " Yes, everyone does". And there may be some exceptions too... Not all the branches of a tree go in the same direction! But we all love our mother. But why don't we love our mother earth???

Do you love your children??? yes, everyone does, everyone those who has kids and those who dont have kids yet, all of us love our own kids. If you belong to that conventional class of society then you will get married( is that necessary?? i don't know!) and then you will have a bunch of kids. Then you will spend your entire life working, earning and saving money and wealth and everything for them, to raise them, to educate them, to enable them to live a better life than the one you are enjoying now. Yes that's all correct, but do we miss the bigger picture here? Each day we are doing lot of things that harms the nature little bit. The water is getting polluted, Air is getting polluted, trees are being cut, animals are being killed and the species are being destroyed...

Oh yea, we humans are doing it... I believe in a fact that basically we are all good, we are all doing better with the available knowledge and awareness.

Yes dear friends, you are also doing all these nasty things, from the first day of your life, you may not be knowing it.

When ever we are using any kind of energy (except those are generated by we animals to power up mussels) we are directly or indirectly burning fossil fuels and leaving lot of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and lot of other gases to the atmosphere. That will pollute the air and at the same time causes the climate to change. The climate change is exponential after a limit and then it will be spontaneous. So a slight change caused by us may result in a great difference in the way the earth looks and feels now.

When ever we buy a new product, we are indirectly releasing a lot of harmful effects to the earth. So buy less, use more. Buy recycled products. produce recyclable products and recycle the used products. Say big NO to plastic and synthetic materials when ever possible.

Love trees even if it is not giving you flower or fruit. Never forget that you have been breathing the oxygen that the trees has been releasing. So you must treat them as lovingly as you treat your mother. fix some plants and trees. setup a small garden. Trust me trees and plants will give you more happiness than that you do buy or feel in shopping malls or pubs or movie theaters. Don't be conditional when you take care of them. the plants may grow, it may not flower, you may not get a fruit, they may not look beautiful as per common norms of symmetry. But love them. If they don't survive, plant some new one to replace them. don't give up.

If you are rich enough, please switch to solar or wind power or go for a hybrid of them.

Use bicycle for commute if you can. Do not use car if you are traveling alone. use public transport. Its good for you. There are lot of good things in using public transportation. Try and find yourself. :)

Its all fine wot if we don't bother about all these crap and then just go on the way everyone are running now. You may save enough for your kids, but their kids will spend double of it to buy water and fresh air from someone else. Or they may not even be able to enjoy the freedom of out side world. They may not enjoy sun bath at the beach, they may not be able to bathe in the sea. They may not be able to do anything in the outdoor! do you want that to happen to you kids or your grand grand kids?????

Please think! Why are we living? why are we living our lives this way?

Just to tell you that...

Just to tell you that i am working on my technical blog too. I find it very difficult to find some time to write a blog. And when i have time i don't use to have patience, when i have both time and patience i don't use to have topic. :) See, I am good at making excuses! Anyways, I have few things in my mind to write blogs on


  1. I am writing technical blogs here too...
  2. Please dim the head lights of you car and bike while you drive, especially in the late night. At least when you see some vehicle, especially two wheelers coming against you. Please do it... otherwise you may kill someone today or tomorrow.
  3. I have seen American Beauty, the best movie of 1999 recently, a classic that anyone should see. Provided you are Adult. Though its tagged with an "Adults-only" certificate, I see its very true picturization of the life. We all believe and act up on what we see and what we think. It may not be always true! Everyone sees the world through their own eyes, their own world. And thus, in fact, no one see the actual world! Its just perspectives!
  4. Though i am not a real 'book-itarian', I've read the "Twilight" the book from 2005 last month. Its just amazing to visualize that a vampire can hold his thirst for blood for common good, and that a girl can fall in love with a vampire. Thanks to my friend Arijeeta Malladeb for she has suggested me this book.
  5. And last but not the least thing is... I am enjoying my busy life these days very much. I am now(it has been this way for last couple of months...) satisfying two of my passions simultaneously. On the first hand I am enjoying my responsible job as Software Engineer, and on the other hand my passion for teaching is also being fed very much! It really thrills me when a bunch of people wait eagerly for me to spout the bits of knowledge i have earned in my life so far, and to gulp up all those words as they come out of me! It feels much worthy to live a life of a teacher than anything else, at times. Anyways, I am enjoying it a lot!
Thats all for now!

Do not burn anything unnecessarily!



Hi friends, Its getting hotter and hotter everyday. I hear everyone complaining, " Its very hot, very hot... hotter than ever before". Most of us know that why the climate change, and who are responsible for this.

But knowing the cause is just half the way. we need cure. are we really bothered about the facts that leads to such a horrible situation where most of the animals are struggling to survive the hot climate. Who bothers if Kola or Panda or hippo get extinct?????

Forget the matter of wild life, lets be selfish as always and think about our own comfort. How can we do our contribution to slowdown the global warming and pollution problems? The simplest way is to reduce "carbon foot print"! please go and learn about it for the sake of yourself. Think about the additional expense you will have to pay for air conditioning your entire house in near future or to be charged for using fresh air!

Now these are some tips that you can use to reduce the damage you do every day to this world.
1. reduce the energy use, all forms of energy.
2. make use of green energy, solar wind. Solar has another advantage as it makes use of the energy that comes in now and reduces the amount of heat radiated back to atmosphere.
3. make use of other recyclable materials instead of plastic. paper, glass, tin or steal, cotton, etc...
4. recycle any used plastic, paper or metal.
5. please please don't burn any plastic or paper or dry leafs. Especially anything that can decay. And don't burn it even if you don't want them to get recycled...
6. plant trees. They give fresh air, reduces carbon dioxide, reduces pollution due to dust, gives us(we and all other animals) food, gives a shelter to the birds and animals. when did you see a chameleon last time???? when did you see a humming bird?? a squirrel last time around your own house??? think we need more trees! They are our saviors! angels with out wings!
7. use public transport or make use of efficient vehicles.
8. find out more ways to make your life more greener.

Plz!

Why do we fight???

Why we do fight??? when we are all brothers and sisters... born from the same mother.....



Its not about who is more powerful or who is superior or who can win.... Its about why should we fight when we really don't want to do it... and when there are other things to concentrate on!
Last month I have attended a seminar at IIT madras where one person(don't want to mention his ID here) gave us shocking facts about what is happening around us, how the issues between Pakistan and India is affecting the growth of both countries.

When most of us, from both the countries don't want to fight each other then who really wants us to???? plz think!

A few promises.....

Being away from your home for months could cause lot of (unwanted)changes and damages. Especially to your own room. It was true for me too.

I came back from Hyderabad and I saw many changes. My rose garden, which use to cheer me up with couple of dozens of flowers and a cocktail of fragrance every morning, is just some still green but leafless plants all prepared to embrace the scorching sun and die. I saw no flowers or even felt like they have forgotten how to make flowers.

As I entered my room, I had a full round of sneezes. Its full of dust. Everything has an even cover of fine dust. hmm our neighborhood is having dusty soil. My books, bed, table, chair, PC- all covered up with dust. And I must add that the privilege to fix my bed room belongs to me only. Next thing i have noticed is my PC cannot be called a computer anymore, instead i call it a pile of junk. Another major thing - the routine shift.

So too many things to fix. Now you know why i dint get enough time for my next blog even after finishing my GATE a month ago. Lot of things happened in these 30 days. And I really wanted to write about too many things. But my PC is still a pile of crap. Here goes the list of topics i wanted to write about....

  1. Avatar - philosophy.
  2. Climate Change - A series of posts about related issues and solutions
  3. IIT Madras - A Pandora on earth
  4. Exebit - A visit to IITM
  5. Exebit - Workshop details
  6. Why we study? - why we really study something or take degrees and things????
  7. hmm i dont remember what its about :P

Today I'm happy that my rose garden is recovering. 11 new flowers buds on its way. I'll see 4 of them tomorrow morning. Its the GATE results coming on Monday!

So lets hope i'll find enough time to fix my PC and finish of my pending posts!

And miles to go before I sleep..."
